"Better luck next time" that could never be, 
Because there ain't gonna be no next time for me . . . 
No Siree, made up my mind to make another start, 
I've made my mind up but I can't make up my heart . . . 

I'd like a new lucky day, that would be nice, 
But this comes just once in a lifetime, not twice . . . 
So don't say, "Better luck next time, that could never be" 
Because there ain't gonna be no next time for me . . . 

< instrumental verse > 

I would like a new lucky day, that would be nice, 
But this comes just once in a lifetime, not twice . . . 
So don't say, "Better luck next time", that could never be, 
Because there ain't gonna be no next time for me . . . 
There ain't gonna be no next time for me . . .
